Description Laura Pardo 2018-05-11 13:29:43 EDT
A flaw was found in Exiv2 0.26, function Exiv2::Image::byteSwap2 in image.cpp file has a heap-based buffer over-read. This allows attackers to cause a denial of service attack.

Created exiv2 tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 1577321]
Comment 4 Pedro Yóssis Silva Barbosa 2018-05-29 14:02:22 EDT
Closing as NOTABUG. 
The POC doesn't reach the byteSwap2 function. The reporter said that the POC was for Ubuntu 16.04, not RHEL.
